On the Qobuz — it’s been my only for a while and I love everything about it, with one exception: sharing a link to anyone that isn’t crazy like us is met with “what’s Qobuz?”

Separately: I hadn’t spun the Ike Quebec session, Blue and Sentimental in a while and…wow. It’s such a great set with Ike, Grant Green, Philly Joe Jones, and Paul Chambers. Mine is the Music Matters, but I’m sure tha classic release is great. The sound of his horn is just killer and the whole session is really something

I love that album, too, even though I have only the subpar BN75 reissue. You got my hopes up with mentioning the classics release. I thought I'd missed something, but alas. I'm stuck with the BN75 for now. I'm hopeful they'll get around to it next year.

One of my absolute favorites. Endlessly grateful to @zdkaiser for selling me his AP!

A lot of the Blue Note titles at 192kHz on Qobuz are digital grabs of Grundman's masters from the 75 series, which sound way better than the actual vinyl pressings!

I thought Heavy Soul was the only Ike Quebec on a BNC to date.
 
I know it’s already been discussed, but I thought I’d revisit it after picking up this Plumb (Questlove/David Murray/Ray Angry) set in the Target sale so got some % off, and it’s pricey even with a discount, but damn is it also really, really good. I’m through 6 of 8 sides, and the vinyl is flat, silent, dynamic, and most of the music is great. Highly recommend if it’s something you don’t want to splurge on but could put on a holiday wish list.
